Disclosed are a shift register, a gate driving circuit, a display panel, and a driving method. The shift register comprises an input circuit respectively connected with a pull-up node and an input signal terminal; an output circuit respectively connected with the pull-up node, a clock signal terminal, a DC signal terminal and an output terminal, wherein the clock signal terminal provides a clock signal, the DC signal terminal provides a DC signal, and the output circuit outputs a scanning signal from the output terminal; and an output pull-down circuit connected to the output circuit. When a first output condition is satisfied, a scan signal outputted from the output terminal is one of the DC signal and the clock signal, and when the second output condition is satisfied, the output pull-down circuit is configured to pull down the scan signal.
